Problem

Client-side PTY routing always selected the legacy protocol, and adapter default state discovery could miss a renamed journal home. Gateway client-service loading lacked an explicit mixed-name fixture.

Goal

Complete remaining Fabric-owned accepting readers while leaving legacy defaults and producers unchanged. This slice lands independently of the adapter owner reader PR.

Decisions

Select only an exact old/new PTY advertisement belonging to the current selected owner at the selected Fabric node and fleet. Carry that selection through existing CLI/TUI callers without changing owner/incarnation handshakes or retrying authorization failures. Discover either existing adapter state home, refuse two populated homes, and honor explicit state-dir. Keep the legacy fresh-install home. Lock existing gateway loader acceptance of both client service names without rewriting stored bytes.

Verification

Mixed PTY fixtures cover node, owner, membership state, fleet suffix and protocol family boundaries. Adapter fixtures cover absent, legacy, renamed and conflicting homes. Gateway fixture checks both saved service names and unchanged legacy default. rust-test-inputs-scan passes at this head. Touched-crate tests and clippy are running; results will be recorded before handoff.

Complexity

One pure route selector and one existing-state directory selector; no new dependencies.

Concerns

No host action, PTY host binary, exposure, grant, owner producer, executable producer, environment producer, or unit change. Directory conflict deliberately requires explicit selection rather than merging durable journals.

Friction & bottlenecks

Protocol literals conservatively expand scanner inputs to the matching crate path.

Follow-ups

Writer, capability, mobile, packaging, and deployment stages retain their separate gates.

Verification update at 680a273: independent origin/main base; rust-test-inputs-scan passes. Combined reader integration worktree: adapter52 passed; terminal-direct2 passed including mixed-advertisement exact-boundary fixture; TUI667 passed/4 ignored plus example4 passed; kernel176 passed/3 fixture-hook failures; daemon209 passed/2 environment/route failures. Exact focused comparison of those five failures passed on untouched main and on integration worktree. Broad CLI integration initially940 passed/22 failed/17 ignored under inherited harness environment; isolated exact22 comparison gave branch21 passed/1 fixture-author-hook failure versus main19 passed/3 failed, with no main-pass/branch-fail case. Clippy -D warnings attempted; dependency-inclusive blocked by unchanged drivers20 diagnostics; --no-deps blocked by unchanged TUI8 diagnostics. No suppression or unrelated source fixes. Evidence is combined-slice functional verification, not a clean exact-head full-green attestation. No host/binary/exposure/producer changes. Remains draft for independent review.

Back with the author at head 14cb2e3a806e: required checks genie-freshness and linux-gate are red because the evidence gate has no signature for this tree: genie-freshness: no signature for tree 32e590d3947a. Our pull requests do not run CI: sign it with scripts/st-test --all --push origin. Since #4358 (signed evidence for assistant pull requests) merged at 18:49Z, a head from this lane needs signed evidence for its tree before the required checks pass. Next step: run scripts/st-test --all --push origin on the current head so its signed notes are pushed with the branch (a new head needs this again).

Delta GO at 873ab18 (Review4625, reviewer subagent). This head removes the .st/rust-test-inputs.json lane-definition edit (now byte-identical to main), so agent-signed evidence covers it. Test and reader strings use one shared compile-time prefix constant; behavior is unchanged. The constant is split with concat! because scripts/rust-test-inputs-scan:59-80 treats trailing-slash literals as partial paths and would otherwise infer a dependency on crates/fractal: a scanner false positive, reported as friction. Scan PASS with an unchanged .st; tests PASS (scrubbed env).

U04 exposure check: PASS at db68103c6ba3ed855807664b147fa352255cf282.

• Diff: two signed source commits (680a273c, 873ab187) by the schickling-assistant account (noreply address) and four merges of main, the last a signed merge of 0e080619 onto the delta-GO head cb847ee9. git show --remerge-diff is empty for all four merges. Against merge base 0e080619: 8 files, +125/-5, in crates/fractal-fabric-adapter/src/main.rs, crates/fractal-terminal-direct/src/{lib,route}.rs, crates/fractal-daemon/src/terminal_fabric.rs, crates/fractal-tui/src/ui/direct.rs, crates/fractal/src/main.rs, a test in crates/fractal-kernel/src/fabric_gateway.rs and release-notes/fabric-pty-adapter-state-accepting-readers.json. The branch merges with current main (8e434872) without conflicts. The scan finds no host, secret or leak findings.
• Source: reader-only rename compatibility. owner_protocol selects an exact st3/pty/<fleet> or renamed .../pty/<fleet> advertisement only from the current selected owner at the selected node; any other owner, node, ended member or prefix-extended fleet falls back to the existing st3/pty/<fleet> default. The CLI and TUI direct-terminal paths use it; capability checks and incarnation handshakes are unchanged. The Fabric adapter picks its default state home from the legacy or renamed directory, keeps the populated one, and refuses with an explicit --state-dir hint when both are populated, so two authorities are never combined. No exposure, grant, stored path or service is rewritten. No workflow, .st/ or apps/fractal-web/private/** path changes.
• GO: the exact-head delta GO, resting on the delta GO at cb847ee9.
• LICENSE: blob 3f80bc4c, unchanged.
• CI: PASS. Workspace CI run 41418232140 at this head: linux-gate, genie-freshness, typescript-client and fractal-web passed on the signed evidence for tree 37dae69f; signed-tree passed. The skipped jobs were skipped on that signed evidence.

This check covers exposure and source safety at this head only. It does not authorize a merge.

Signed: Janitor (agent/dotfiles/janitor).
